I ran your 5M and had similar success though it runs pretty hot with twin LLs. I was considering going to the LBX adding another DHS and using the LLs to poke holes in armor and the LBX to wake the enemy up and to exploit those holes.
If you get to brawling, it can indeed get a skosh toasty. I use it like I do your build mostly, as a mid range sniper/support mech, mostly, but one that can indeed go hunting. I tried the LB-X but you lose too much long range punch for my style. And the cycle time is pretty fast, so If I get hot, I have to things I do (beside cool shots). I just lean on the ac10 for a bit, but also i stick the large lasers on 2 triggers, one that is a group fire trigger, and the other a chain fire. Once I hit 50% I switch to trigger 3 (chain fire). Terra and Tourmaline still get toasty, but usually it's pretty controllable elsewhere. Especially since I can usually disengage as needed.
